Rebirth: Super Banking System Chapter 2544 - 2382: Targeting Japan First

Data release sent waves across the nation.

Crowds burst into cheers.

Six years back, their GDP hovered at merely 20 billion US dollars, barely a sliver compared to today. The difference spans over eightyfold!

Thrill!

Jubilation!

Streets of Xin’an City buzzed as big stores rolled out discounts to celebrate yet again! No need to wonder about their generosity; losing a bit of profit doesn’t faze them.

Rent.

Tax Rate.

Neither burdens heavily, while perks abound.

Plus,

the whole city falls under Myanmar Bank Group. Such massive achievements demand festivity. Merchants, as direct winners, join in naturally.

Emotionally,

and logically,

festivities are in order.

…

Witnessing the scene,

visitors from abroad stood dumbfounded at first.

Utter bewilderment!

"Over 1.6 trillion US dollars? I... got used to it this fast," certain tourists marveled.

"Me too."

"Everything I’ve witnessed and learned in Myanmar proves the stats are real. I dare say India won’t top Myanmar this year."

"No way!"

"Hehe, wait and see."

"…"

Foreign tourists grumbled, managing only bitter smiles. No contrast, no envy; while others reveled wildly, their nations’ economies paled.

Sigh!

Tourists from Eurozone nations felt deeper dismay. Last year’s Euro crash slashed the whole zone’s GDP by nearly half.

Myanmar: Over 1.6 trillion US dollars.

Sky-high!

This sum towers impressively. It storms straight into 2010’s global top ten GDPs, claiming a spot among the world’s elite economies.

What’s the implication?

Simply put,

growth explodes!

Before,

it lingered in the teens; now, top ten entry seems certain. Top eight or six? No hype needed.

Euro crisis.

Effects ripple,

beyond Eurozone borders to numerous outsiders.

…

India.

Facing these numbers,

they stayed bent over, harvesting lemons.

One basket.

Two baskets.

Three baskets.

…

Backaches crept in. Myanmar’s figures outstrip India’s 2010 totals. Glancing at India’s 2011 economy, confidence wanes sharply.

First off,

growth trails perpetually, Roy City the lone spark—yet one bloom can’t paint the field.

Next,

currency falls short.

Fake bills.

Minting cash.

A near-endless loop.

As a Commonwealth nation, UK’s Brexit stirred ripples too. Economic and fiscal showings remain dismal overall.

Thus,

to save face, only standard tricks remain…

…

Eurozone.

Gloomy!

Against Myanmar’s stats, Germany holds steady; Euro’s plunge didn’t tank its GDP much. Real sufferers? Fellow Eurozone states.

France.

Italy.

Spain.

Netherlands.

…

Their numbers nearly halved from the Euro’s nosedive alone, worst for France and Italy. Longtime top-tenners, now booted out.

Agonizing!

Infuriating!

Right then,

Greeks chimed in with smugness.

"See? Hitching fully to the Euro spells doom. Us? Post-Eurozone exit, we control exchange rates better."

"Euro ought to disband fast."

"Keep going, and stagnation drags all down."

"…"

That statement,

gnashed teeth nationwide. Yet it sparked deep reflection. Truly, Euro woes? Never their doing.

Blame lies with the Euro.

Observe:

Greece’s departure brought little rate shifts, stability held; amid Euro’s freefall, holding steady equals gains.

Hence,

exiting the Eurozone ‘trap’ sooner,

might’ve,

altered fates. Such notions budded widely. Giant vessels steer slow; this sting runs deep.

Protests.

Marches.

Demos.

Temporarily,

Eurozone stirred chaotically. Further rate slides loomed over 2012 recovery hopes.

Persistent!

…

United States.

Consortiums pressed on. Gitti aimed for Asia Dollar overtaking Euro as global trade runner-up. Still shy for now.

At present,

Asia Dollar growth hit a minor snag. Two months of alliances lifted it from ten to fourteen percent.

Euro?

Seventeen.

Euro’s losses split: some to Asia Dollar, some to Dollar—not rivals lunging, but markets deciding.

Thus,

The gap between the Asia Dollar and the Euro stands at just three points. Overcoming these three points proves extremely challenging, demanding a powerful surge to achieve.

Yet,

the push has already reached its maximum.

Pushing beyond,

could wipe out the Euro entirely. Such an outcome fails to align with their goals; after all, they share long-standing ties, profiting a little works, but total ruin crosses the line.

Moreover,

for maintaining equilibrium, the Euro serves as a crucial counterweight to the Asia Dollar.

All at once,

a voice suggested:

"What if we take a little from our own currency basket?"

At these words,

everyone shot peculiar looks around, not dismissing the idea outright. Still, justifying this scheme to fellow consortiums would pose real difficulties.

Not to mention

the US government.

True enough,

leaders in power often represent various interests. Yet, certain fundamental principles must be upheld. Moves like this could erode America's credibility.

Three percent.

Immense implications.

Never take it lightly.

This represents three percent of worldwide cross-border trade in goods—an enormous sum. Giving it away without cause would raise eyebrows anywhere.

"Impossible!"

"No way to justify it publicly."

"Right on."

"..."

"You got it wrong; not from the US basket..." Once explained clearly, the others grasped it instantly—indeed, plenty of subordinates exist.

Adjusting their basket faces zero resistance.

It avoids breaking their rice bowls.

Nor does it snatch their meals.

Their bowls simply shrink a tad; they keep eating their full portions unchanged, suffering no loss. After the deal seals, the Asia Dollar decides the rest.

Hmm!

Perfectly workable.

To start,

aim at Japan.

...

Huaxia.

New Year’s Eve.

The masses mainly celebrated the Spring Festival, sparing a quick look at Myanmar’s GDP before diving into farewells to the old year and welcomes to the new.

Qingyan City.

Manor.

The Tang Family buzzed with the usual festivity.

Gathered round the table.

Feasting, toasting, talking, and chuckling.

Recapping 2010.

Anticipating the year ahead.

Regarding the US consortiums pushing the Asia Dollar to seize portions from elsewhere, this fits seamlessly into Tang Qing’s strategy—unless the Asia Dollar vanishes.

If not,

surpassing this three percent gets tricky. However, with the operatives’ schemes in motion, no problem arises. As the consortiums hold excess capacity,

naturally, leverage their power.

After the Asia Dollar devours it all, hoping for regurgitation? Keep dreaming!

By mid-year,

the Euro,

shall fade into history.
